Betrayal

Why don't you go,
Rip my heart out of my chest,
It's not like you'd care,
Or else you wouldn't have left.

You taught me that
Family is most important,
Yet you left,
How does this make sense?

I begged you to stay,
Cried all along,
Even the cat pitied me,
Yet still you're gone.

Don't you know how this hurts,
Can't you hear my heart break,
After all you're my father,
This won't ever change.

You packed your bags,
Because my mother and brother,
But what about me?
- you didn't bother.

I'm the only one uninvolved,
Yet you hurt me most.
I need you, need a family,
Need the comfort it offers,
Yet it's all in vain.

As long as my brother's here,
She won't care about me,
But you left me behind,
Didn't even ask at all.

You betrayed me,
my father,
And while some forgive,
I shall never forget.

I'm left behind
In a family,
Where cat and dog
Matter the most to me,

How could you dare
And leave me?
